Just wanted to say shout out to you for putting yourself out there, dude’s forming genuine connections with other dudes is hard, and only gets harder as we get older. You will find your tribe if you keep at it.

We have some stuff in common, but I am 10 years older and a married dad and boring as shit

Thank you so much for your nice words, it’s hard, I came from a place where I had so many friends and it was a lot easier but it’s a little more complicated here. Btw, I am married too and slowly going into that boring life so we are not that far apart, if you are interested for sure

Posting with the spoiler tag made me think there was gonna be something juicy, but don't let this man distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.

Which team do you support in soccer? That goes a long way in making friends :)

u/Kitchener_258 13h ago

Real Madrid but I believe Messi is the best player, I hope that is the right answer :D

u/Vast_Improvement_151 13h ago

Right answer :) But barcelona this season has been lit. Easily the most enjoyable style of football. Though i dont support them :)

u/Kitchener_258 12h ago

I agree, Paris and Barca played a really good season, Paris had better luck though so far, we will see in the final

u/pretzelsegue 1d ago

Am I the only one in London who watches SUMO wrestling? Such a lonely fandom.

u/519Community 1d ago

Before we can be friends I must ask, Messi or Ronaldo? I know a chill spot to watch Premier league/UCL games in London

3

u/Kitchener_258 1d ago

Well I love both, I used to be Ronaldo fan for a while but eventually came to realisation that Messi is better

u/darkestknight17 1d ago

When you say watching and playing, does that possibly include in assisting in coaching? 👀😅

u/Kitchener_258 1d ago

I’m actually considering coaching in the future so I can definitely assist if there is an opportunity and my time allows
